UN General Assembly condemned Israel 14 times in 2021, 5 times rest of world December 19, 2021(Shutterstock with additions by United With Israel)(Shutterstock with additions by United With Israel)UN General Assembly condemned Israel 14 times in 2021, 5 times rest of world“Make no mistake: the purpose of the lopsided condemnations is to demonize the Jewish state.”By TPShe UN General Assembly condemned Israel on Friday in two separate resolutions, concluding the world body’s 2021 legislation with a total of 14 resolutions that single out the Jewish state, and five on the rest of the world combined.There was one resolution each adopted Thursday for the regimes of North Korea, Iran, and Myanmar, one on Crimea, while a draft resolution on Syria was deferred.“The UN’s assault on Israel with a torrent of one-sided resolutions is surreal,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, a Geneva-based non-governmental watchdog organization.“It’s absurd that in the year 2021, out of some 20 UN General Assembly resolutions that criticize countries, 14 of them, 70%, were focused on one single country: Israel. Make no mistake: the purpose of the lopsided condemnations is to demonize the Jewish state,” said Neuer.Friday’s resolutions against Israel included one entitled “Oil slick on Lebanese shores” and singled out Israel as the only country to be censured under the “Sustainable Development” agenda item, and refers to an alleged incident from the 2006 war between Hezbollah and Israel.The second resolution condemned Israel for allegedly exploiting the natural resources of the Palestinians, and Syria’s in the Golan Heights.Read The UN’s desire to get rid of the State of IsraelUN Watch noted that the text made no mention of Hamas’ commandeering of international aid money to fund the construction of terror tunnels rather than to rebuild destroyed infrastructure; environmental pollution caused by Palestinian tire burning; destruction of flora and fauna with arson balloons and kites; and refusal to develop their own water resources and deal with their own sewage as required by the Oslo Accords.“The UN’s disproportionate assault against the Jewish state undermines the credibility of what is supposed to be an impartial international body. When the General Assembly gives in to politicization and selectivity by discriminating against Israel, it violates the UN Charter’s guarantee of equal treatment to all nations, large and small,” Neuer warned.“We note that while France, Germany, Sweden and other EU states have supported nearly all of the 14 resolutions adopted against Israel during this General Assembly session, the same European nations have failed to introduce a single UNGA resolution on the human rights situation in China, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Cuba, Turkey, Pakistan, Vietnam, Algeria, or on 170 other countries,” said Neuer. “Where’s the supposed EU concern for international law and human rights?”“Today’s farce at the General Assembly underscores a simple fact: the UN’s automatic majority has no interest in truly helping Palestinians, nor in protecting anyone’s human rights; the goal of these ritual, one-sided condemnations is to scapegoat Israel,” said Neuer.
